<strong>Glitch</strong> <strong>Aesthetics</strong><br />
<strong>Iman</strong> <strong>Moradi</strong><br />
Because a <strong>Glitch</strong> effect is unanticipated and sometimes coincidental, any kind of<br />
regular repetition appearing in the equation makes it quite complex. 21 Normally<br />
we would not expect something coincidental to be visually repetitive in a highly<br />
systematic way, especially with razor sharp precision!<br />
This kind of repetition also makes computer glitches ultimately divergent from<br />
nature and fractals which use chaotic and “irregular patterning intentionally.”<br />
(Palmer, 1972) Tony Scott is highly assertive of the fact that the <strong>Glitch</strong> is<br />
distinctly unique from fractals in “Anti Fractal” (Scott, 2001).<br />
The patterns that computer glitch replication produces can also be likened to a<br />
digital ‘wallpaper’ that screams of the reproducibility of digital art, while<br />
maintaining the fact that they are accidental and unique.<br />
21<br />
So on the hand you have repetition that comes from a structured process and other the other a seeming<br />
randomness.<br />
